Queensberry Connects


Opportunities

Nigel’s post about Chris MacKenzie creating his own luck reminded me the world is full of opportunities. The problem is to recognise them and take action.

I was at a seminar in the States 2-3 years ago, a roomful of high net worth business people plus me.

We got to talking about Queensberry, and wedding albums in general.

Not one of them had ever seen a Queensberry or anything like it.

One guy had recently married at an exclusive Carribean resort … spent a gazillion bucks on the event … and “ticked the box” for a shoot-and-burn DVD from the resort’s tame photographer.

I had to go and get an album from my hotel room to show them what I was talking about. They loved it. A roomful of opportunities for the taking.

Cheers, Ian

PS According to dailyfinance.com, global wealth rose by 11.5% in 2009 and the number of millionaire households (in USD) by 14%. Millionaires are thickest on the ground in Singapore (11.4% of households) and Hong Kong (8.8%), but the USA has the most (4.7m). FYI.
Go get ‘em. But please don’t assume they’ll only spring for shoot ‘n’ Burn ;)

      Dear Ian, have you ever meet such situation when a couple say “It’s so cool product, the album is the one we haven’t seen before, but seems like we will order it only on our first anniversary or so”? How should I act in this situation? The funny thing is after seining Queensberry type of products they don’t order middle-range flush mount non-Queens albums either, they do want Queens ;) in year or so.

      Excellent question Sergey. I’m going to a blog about it tomorrow.
